Abstract

Ubiquitination is an important post-translational modification that is implicated in controlling almost every biological process by targeting cellular proteins to degradation. While the importance of ubiquitination in controlling the fate and the intracellular functions of various proteins was widely studied, its role in extracellular protein secretion has been unexplored so far. In this study, by using YB-1 (Y-box Binding protein 1) as a model protein, we showed that ubiquitination is required for its extracellular secretion. We also identified HACE1 as a specific E3 ligase that polyubiquitinates YB-1 through non-canonical K27 linked ubiquitin chains. Formation of these ubiquitin linkages on YB-1 is necessary for its interaction with Tumor Susceptibility Gene 101 (TSG101), a component of the Multi-Vesicular Body (MVB) pathway, which facilitates its secretion. Finally, we demonstrated that extracellular secreted YB-1 is a functional protein that acts to inhibit Transforming Growth Factor-Beta mediated epithelial to mesenchymal transition. In summary, we identified a novel functional role for non-canonical ubiquitin linkages in mediating protein secretion. Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
